Founders District

Founders District serves the Communities of: Rogers Park, Edgewater, Peterson Park, Albany Park, Ravenswood, Uptown, Irving Park, Lakeview, Lincoln Park, Logan Square, Wicker Park, Bucktown, West Loop, The Loop, and River North. Our District works closely with over 40 Scout Units (Cub Scout Packs, Boy Scout Troops, & Venturing Crews) to ensure the delivery of quality Scouting programs to over 2000 youth members on the North and West sides of Chicago. The District offers a variety of program opportunities from our Boy Scout Camporees, our annual Pinewood Derby, our annual First Aid Meet and various other day and weekend long events.

The Founders District is looking for dedicated people to share their time and talents with the District Committee. There are many positions open for those who want to contribute at the District level, including spots on the financial, training, program, and activities subcommittees. Please contact founders.communication@gmail.com if you want to learn more. Or perhaps you do not have time, but you know someone who does and would be an asset to the Founders District--i.e. a family member, a parent in your unit, friends or co-workers who are former Scouts who want to give back, newly minted Eagle Scouts; please also let us know about these potential candidates, too. Our goal is to offer more opportunities and support from the District, and you will help us make it happen!
